Boho Velvets Sage

Icaria and Boho Velvets VelvetSAF0133-01

Boho Velvets Sage is a softly weathered olive-sage velvet with a low, even pile that catches the light in gentle patches. Its surface reads calm and tactile rather than shiny, giving the colour a grounded, earthy depth.

About this fabric

This Sanderson velvet has a substantial 765gsm weight and a usable width of 140 cm, making it a strong choice for tailored furnishing projects. The colourway sits between sage and olive, with a muted, dusted undertone that looks cooler in shadow and warmer where the pile lifts. The close velvet nap gives the fabric a subtle tonal shift across the surface, which is visible as mottled darker and lighter areas in the image. With no pattern repeat, the focus stays on the texture and the quiet depth of the green.

How to use it

Use this sage-olive velvet on an armchair, ottoman or headboard to bring in colour without losing a calm palette. It works especially well with oak, aged brass and oatmeal linens, where the muted green feels natural and settled.

Pairs well with warm woods and quiet neutrals for an understated, tactile finish.

Boho Velvets Sage is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
